@JonahDispatch I am OK with wealth gain. I am very OK with capitalism. However, I want our taxation scheme to keep up with changes in wealth and income, the disparity of which has widened substantially. I want opportunity for all. Increasing wealth inequality hinders opportunity for all.

@DaveEanet @NewRyanField @PatRyanChicago @ryan_sports_dev Looks awesome. But, that is a lot of work left for 112 days…it would seem to my untrained eyes.

@AriFleischer The deadline for this election was Tuesday, 6/2, and it did have meaning. (Postmarked on 6/3 does not count.)

@davidsirota There is a difference between the public and a US Senate candidate. Do you recognize that?

[Mark McCann @MarkMcCannOP]

@SirMichaelCian1 Kudos to Governor Mills for being an effective governor of her state. But, part of being a good executive is grooming successor candidates. She should not have run, because she should have spent the last couple years shining a light on those that could.

@ColinMcMahon31 If “college football as we know it” violates labor laws, then, like it or not, “college football as we know it” will have to change.

@baseballcrank Compare President Obama’s character to Ken Paxton’s. If you are struggling to answer or working your “whatabouts”, then no, you do not care about character at all.

[Mark McCann @MarkMcCannOP]

@EWErickson Would you vote for President Obama or Ken Paxton in a Senate Race in Texas?

[Mark McCann @MarkMcCannOP]

@chaos9074 @JeffPassan Is anyone limiting your salary? If your boss likes your work and wants to pay you more, should there be any constraint on you (and your co-workers)? I say: No.

[Mark McCann @MarkMcCannOP]

@JillFilipovic Actually, no. To quote my favorite rock band: “If you choose not to decide, you still have made a choice.” Easy for me as I will not vote in Maine, nor give any money to either candidate. A voter could reasonably under-vote the race or write-in a candidate. It is not binary.

[Mark McCann @MarkMcCannOP]

@EWErickson Why don’t you invite Mr. Talarico on to your show for a thoughtful discussion of the issues of the day? It is seriously past time for you to look in the mirror. Is Ken Paxton really the type of character and government servant your Lord and savior calls you to support?

@Triphammer111 @EWErickson I didn’t say you couldn’t say it. I said it was not advancing your argument. I stand by the comment. Who are “my kind”? Do you know much about me? I don’t appreciate the suggestion that I am destroying the country. I hope you can find more joy in life.

[Mark McCann @MarkMcCannOP]

@Triphammer111 @EWErickson I did in 2020. I voted for Dean Philips in the Illinois Democratic primary in 2024 because of President Biden. Your use of expletives and vulgarity do not enhance whatever argument you are making.

[Mark McCann @MarkMcCannOP]

@EWErickson One of those two premises is correct.

[Mark McCann @MarkMcCannOP]

@JonahDispatch You recognize the difference, right? Ms. Rojas and Ms. Weissbrot are nimcompoops who, hopefully, will grow out of this nonsense. They will never be elected to anything. Now, start with the President and work your way down with the grossness on the right. See what I mean?

[Mark McCann @MarkMcCannOP]

@politicalmath You are 100% correct. Almost all Americans feel the same way about Ms. Rojas and Ms. Weissbrot, who will never win an election. The same comment about should be cast out of a decent society applies to….our current President who received over 75M votes.

[Mark McCann @MarkMcCannOP]

@EiratheIntern @ConnorMEwing That is a strange way to say “Southern Whites really didn’t want black folks to have equal rights or be able to vote.”

[Mark McCann @MarkMcCannOP]

@ChrisVanHollen @FBIDirectorKash Did you cheat off of my test? That is me.

@NCAALAX - Did you intend to get the location of Martin Stadium wrong? Evanston, IL.
